Abstract
Abstract A process for preparing a 3β,7β-dihydroxy-Δ 5 -steroid of the formula ##STR1## wherein Q is ##STR2## and R 1 is hydrogen, trimethylacetyl, tert-butyldimethylsilyl, dimethyl-2-(3-methylbutyl)silyl or tribenzylsilyl, comprises fermenting a 3β-hydroxy-Δ 5 -steroid of the formula ##STR3## wherein Q is as defined above, and R 2 is hydrogen or alkanoyl of 2-6 carbon atoms, with a culture of Botryodiplodia malorum to obtain the corresponding 3β,7β-dihydroxy-Δ 5 -steroid; and, optionally, reacting the resultant product with trimethylacetic anhydride, tert-butyldimethylsilyl chloride, dimethyl-2-(3-methylbutyl)silyl chloride, or tribenzylsilyl chloride.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 8
Claim 1
Independent Claim
40 words
A process for selectively blocking the 3β OH of a 3β,7β-dihydroxy-Δ 5 -steroid of the formula ##STR7## wherein Q is ##STR8## comprising reacting the steroid with tert-butyldimethylsilyl chloride, dimethyl-2-(3-methylbutyl)silyl chloride, or tribenzylsilyl chloride, thereby obtaining the corresponding 3β-blocked-7β-free(OH)-Δ 5 -steroid.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
40 words
A process for selectively blocking the 3β OH of a 3β,7β-dihydroxy-Δ 5 -steroid of the formula ##STR7## wherein Q is ##STR8## comprising reacting the steroid with tert-butyldimethylsilyl chloride, dimethyl-2-(3-methylbutyl)silyl chloride, or tribenzylsilyl chloride, thereby obtaining the corresponding 3β-blocked-7β-free(OH)-Δ 5 -steroid.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
25 words
A process of claim 1 wherein the blocking agent is tert-butyldimethylsilyl chloride and the reaction is carried out in the presence of an organic base.
